IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. . HOUSE OF LORDS—Tstunsinv, All 4. 24. - This being the (lay on which the Knights, Citizens, anti J 3 i pun, returned to serve in Parliament, stood summoned.to In( et . at Westpiriater, the Loon Max CH aricattost, in his judicial character, went to the House of Lords to' extend; pureoant to a writ of adjournment, the time for such meeting until the t d day . of November next. His Loaoantr entered the House at half-past three o'clock, accompanied by. the Lord Bishop of London, and Lord St' Ile ) ". Sir Thomas Tyrochitt, Usher of the Black Roti, was in at tendance. Mr. Currie, Reeding Clerk to the Heine, held the writ of ad. rurnment. The Loan Caalscrta.ort directed the Deputy Usher of the ,}Meek Rod to call any persons at hand belonging to the Commons ,‘ to the Boor, to hear the writ read. Mr. Quairsts; accordingly went helow the Bar, and the doors being opened in the usual way, Mr. Rickman, one of the Clerks or the Reuse of Commons, with the Clerk of the Journals, and several Messengers entered. - - • - The Lord Chancellor (being uncovered) declared in the House, " That his Majesty haul canoed a. Writ to be issued under the nre k t Seal, for the further prorogation of Parliament.* Mr. Currey then read the writ as follows " GEORGIC R. • "o earge tht Fourth, by the Grate of God, of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, King, Defender of, the Faith. To our well-beloved and faithful, the Prelates, Noblca, and Pt:ers, of our said United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, and to our well-beloved and faithful, the Knights, Citizens, and Burgesses, and Commissioners for Shirts, and Burghs, of our said United Kingdom, called and chosen to our Parliament, to be begun and held at our City of Westminster, on the, twenty-fourth day of August next, and to every one of you, greeting. Whereas, we, for certain arduous .and urgeia affairs concerning us, the State, and Defence of our said United Kingdoms of Great Britain and Ireland, and the Church, did ordain the said Parliament to be begun and held at the City of We•totitedet, , tht: twenty-fifth day of July last past, and did,com mend you by our several write to he present at the City and day aforeseid i to treat, consent, and conclude about those things, Which in oursaid Parliament then and there should he proposed, and treated of. And whereas, we have, (by our writ) for cer tain causes and considerations, us thereunto especially moving; thought fit to prorogue our said Parliament, from the said twenty ifth day of Jnly, to, and until the twenty-fourth day of August following, ao that neither you nor any of you should he *ld or obliged to appear, on the said twenty-fifth day or July, at the aforesaid City, being willing that you, and every of you, be wholly discharged, as tows, therefrom ; and by the same writ, we very lately commanded you, and every of you, to appear, and be present, on the said twenty-fourth day of August, at our said City, to treat, do, act, and conclude upon those things, which in our said Parliament should happen to be ordained ; neverthe less, for certain pressing causes and considerations, us especially moving, our said Parliament froM the said twenty-fourth day of August to and until the second day of November Wowing, we have thought fit further to prorogue, so that neither you, nOr any of you, should he held or obliged to appear, on the said twenty fourth day of August, at the aforesaid City,--We also will that you, and every of you, be wholly discharged, as to ~ us, theVeknn, commending, and by the tenor of these ,presents strictly requiring you, and ever/ of you, and all others whorn this may concern, that you and eery of you do 'personally appear and be present on the said 2,1 d a y of November, at our said City of Westminster, to tree, do, set, and conclude Upon those things, which, in our said tarliament, by the Com Mon Council of our said United Kingdom (by God's assistance), shall happen to be ordained. " Ourself, at Westminster, the 27th day of July, in the seventh year of Our Reign. " By the King himself, signed with his own hand. " BATHURST." Immediately after the reading of the writ, the Loan CJuAt: csarlist (who had never sat down upon the Woolsack) bowed to the Atiembly, which, thereupon, broke up. The House of Lords has been lately beautified and put in excel- Uttt order. The Throne makes a brilliant appearance. It has been regilt. The rich drapery which hung over the col►►mns, and produced rather a dramatic effect, has been removed. The gene t-al display is improved by the alteration. Varinus repairs are making the avenues, which mat render the Home tunic con , yenient during the ensuing Session of Parliament. Mr. Hamill, in his valuable work on prevalent* of meted ings in the house: of Commons (vol. U. r. 800). says; " A pro. rogation of the Perliametitle either by the King's command, cod in his presence signified by the Lord: Chancellor, or ttipeaker of the House of Lords, to both Houses or by writ under the (ieut Seal, diluted to the. Lords and Commons; or by Connair 7 sioners appointed by a Special Commission for that purpose. The hilt is the usual mode of proceeding, where the Parliament ig prorogued at the dose of the Session, Ido not find any blatancy where the Parliament hae been ;proro g ued by writ, except upon the. Meeting of a new Parliament, after a general election, and before s, Speaker of the House of Con u is chosen. Upon this • oceasion, when the Members of the House of Commons come to the place appointed for administering to them , the oaths, by the Lord Steward or his Deputies, 'on their being informed that the. Parliament is to be prorogued by writ,"directed to the Lords and Commons, they go dirmtly, without going into the House of ' Commons, or expecting any message from the Lords, to the House, of Peers, where the writ for proroguing the Parliament is read.' This is the form of the entry in the.. Journal of the House of Corn- mom, without exptessiug by whom, or upon what authority, this information to the Commons is conveyed." In addition to the pre, , cedents cited by Mr. Ilatsell, we may notice the following :—Au. gust 31, 1802 (Lords bum. v. 44, p. 3, Commons Journ. v. 38,' p. 4), and August 4, 1818, (Lords Journal of the above date; C,'oMmons Joum, v. 71, 3). Mr. H. adds in note, "It ap pears from an entry amongst the standing orders of the Lords, that when the Lord Chancellor speaks to the Lords and Commons so aatembled, and directs the writ to be read, he speaks uncover ad," in respeit that he speaks to the Lords as well us to the Corn •' 'mans, and so it is uniformly entered in the Coup - nous Journals. FRENCH PAPERS, (From the Etode dated Weatieulay, Aug. 24.) CONCLUSION OF THE FiRhIAN D IS SOLVING THE JANISSARIES : O , CONIMANTI N OPL JULY I name of Janissary Shan no longer eltist in,tbaiiSteatt a sufficient number of troops shall be reorganified, , dinAer the name of ,‘ Assikiri, itiatisurri Mtihainedie,' (viet- - ;zioue troop, of Alabomet,) who will serve the state religion stud honour, and in ft4n):e kno'ii;'how to meet the enjoy. The actual easessor of the Landsebak of Hudawendikiar, (Brussa), is appointed their General-in-Chief, and shall hay :his residents in the Palace of the Aga of ,the Janissaries. This Pa lace sludi, henceforth, be called, on)y the Pakier t‘f Straskie'r Pacha ; and the barrack s and eaill-hilses shall be occupied only by his troops. The titles of Aga of the Janissaries, Age. of Cater, and Aga of Btiloe, are entirely abolished. The latter Aga of the 3aiiissaries, is raised to the dignity of Capidgi Baschi (Chamber lain), with the rank of Emiri Ahoy Elvet (Chief Equerry), and ' the late Kul Kyavaaai (Lieutenant of the Aga of the Janissaries) is adjoined to the Seraskier Pacha, With the title of Miri Miram (Paeha,of Two Tails) : the t agardsche Baschi (Chief of the Keepers or ilse Hounds) ; and the Sampan Ischi Baschi (Chief of the Keepers of the Bull-dogs), are appointed Capidgi Baschi. The other Officers, known by the name of Bulak Agoleri (Gene-. rals of Cavalry), who have remained faithful to the GovernMent, are raised to the dignity of Silahors (Equerries); in short every one has received, according to his rank, marks of the Imperial munificence. Those who have hitherto occupied the place of Ya yabuluk Mutissarifii (possessors of military benefices or forms), shall be considered henceforth equal to the other Zaina (holders of military fiefs), in the quality of Decolte Alit Yedeklussi (irre movable Dignitaries), and employed in other honourable offices under the Sublime Porte, As for the Janissaries, who have in their hands assignments for pay or daily allowances, they shall continue to enjoy them, with. out any diminution, for the remainder of their lives, under the sh!ulow of the ever charitable protection of the Sublime Porte, by means of the sealed bong, which they are to present and have re gistered. It may he relied upon that injustice shall be done to nobody. Thus the Illusselman pe6ple, great and small, the Minas, and the inembCrs of the corporations—in a Word; the whole Musseltran nation will form, henceforward, only one howl!', All must consider each other as brethren in die same I faith; no disunion, no misunderstanding, must prevail among them. The great must look upon the little with commisseration, and the latter show respect to the great. In a word, all must be united, as long as it shall please the Almighty to acco►nplish the great work of the new system, which has been unanimously chosen and adopted, chiefly with a view to glorify according to the will of the Holy Law, and to diffuse the word of the protect. big God, and to animate the religion and the law of the Prince of the Prophets. Beware of permitting any person whatever to dare Ito speak or act in a contrary manner, or to oppose the decrees of the Government. If this should happen, know that the resolu tion to employ, with the aid of God, the sword of the law, is al ready taken, and that every thing necessary will be done to carry it into execution. As all these measurea will be announced in Rumelia and Ana. tolia, and in the whole empire, . by particular Erman, you will summon the Imam of the quarters which are under your direc tion ; you , will acquaint them with the state of things, and fur nish them with authentic copies of the present firman, that each of thenmay read it in the mosques and places dedicated to prayer. You will signify, and will explain, to the people, that the sole cause of the dissolution of the Janissatles is the necessity and the wish to vivify religion, to fortify the Ottoman Powers, and to ameliorate Islamism.: that for this reason ; the statutes of that corps have been changed, and-put in their place exercised troops, under the denominetion of victorious troops of Mahoniet ; that no reduction will he made in the pay of the late Janissaries; that their assignments will be punctually paid during the, life, of the possmors. You will invite all those who have the faith, and are submissive to God and to his holy book, to address thanks givings to the Supreme Being for this happy event; to live trim qua under the Protection, of the most powerful Padischah,. who is the shadow of God on earth, and not, cease to implore, with him, the benediction of Heaven. Lastly, you will inform them that whoever shall maintain the contrary, will be punished in this world, and in the other. You will, therefor!, watch . with the greatest attention over this, and whatever concerns the,commands of the law. The 11th Zekkadi, lit 11—(116th June, 1026.)

The news given by the Drapeau Blow, of two armies of 15,000 rnen formed in Spain, one by the name of Army of Observation, and the-other of Army of Reserve, has no more foundation. (Prom the Quotidienne.) SPAIN, Virroata, Ayei. 18 ...We receive this day, by expresa, a letter from Valladolid, of the 10th instant, from which we learn.the existence, in Portugal, of a very active opposition to the esta blishment of the charter of Don Pedro, or rather of the English. A junta of Royalisti has assembled at Braganta---it has proclaimed the infant Don Miguel abilointe King ; and, until his return to the kingdom, his mother, Charlotte, Queen. MI the inhabitants, and almost all the troops, are opposed to the new order of things, and demand that the Catholic religion should be the only - one in honour, to the exclusion of all other.. They announce, from ano ther part, that the troops of the province of Tram-nit-Mantes have declared against the Constitutional Government. Matters have proceeded to a like extremity in the province between 'the Douro awl Minh°, where the infant Don Miguel has been proclaimed King. The commander of the Royal army is Viscount De Monte Lope, cousin of the General Marquis De Chaves. AD these troops have been obliged to enter Spain by the route of Zamora, stating the fact, that Portuguese forces, whose designs were un known, have been directed on that side. (From the Constitutionnel) rORTIIGAL.—(i.n.tvATz txrratt..) Ltsaou, AUG. b.— A packet from England entered the Tagus the day before yesterday. She brings no private letters, butinerely Government despatches. We are informed that these despatches contain the oath to the Constitutional Charter made by the Infant Miguel, and a despatch from the English Minister, announcing , that, in the event of any refusal to execute the orders of the Emperor, he will send art English army to hasten the acconiplish. went of the Royal will. We are assured that Sir W. A'COurt, the English Ambassador, has just addressed a most energetii: note to t'he Spanish Govern ment, informing them that if they continue to give shelter to the armed bands of the rebels, that serious act will be looked on as a declaration of war made by Spain against England, our Ally. Agreeably to the orders of the Princess Regent, inertial law will be proclaimed immediately, and most rigidly enforced in'efery part of the kingdom where malevolence and perfidy shall stir up tumults...

Seit—ln your Paper of Tuesday the 15th inst. tad the pleasure of reading some manly and just 0 1 servations on the attack of a Sunday ,Journal upon the Bishop of Chester and Dr. Owen. It. it; only with ieference to, the former, that I trouble your Readers with this letter, in artier to correct a wrong impression respecting the repairs of a Rectory House, which you have inadvertently fallen into. You state that the Rectory of St. Bishopegate was 'in a bad condition, " and would soon have fallen down of itself." If it were in this state, it must have come so into the Rec tor's possession ; now every incumbent upon his in duction to a living can claim from the executors of his predecessor a sum of money sufficient to put the house in tenantable repair. 'tins is an every day's occurrence. Several instances are within ray knowledge *where a whole year's " iiiiiolument has been paid for dilapida tions. If his Lordship did not avail himself of legal trim i s far the repairs of the Rectory, when he came . . to t, because some impOrtant and benevolent con siderations prevented him. You also observe, that because the Bishop of Chester did not, out of his own revenues, build a house for the future Rectors of Bishopsgaii, he is called by these persona " a most avaricious tyrant." Now the law re uires every Rector, Vicar, Sic. to keep the Glebe Holm in due repair, and in some case incumbents must build at their own expence, in order to he com fortable; I know several instances of houses being built by Incumbents, some private fortune, end otters with money borrowed from a fund on purpose, which is repaid remually. A Bishop can Compel tha Inman bent to keep up the house. So much for the law butthe ease is 'totally different where the Pariehioners come foretold voluntarily and offer to build or repair the house of their ereerned and highly respected Pastor. It is then a Aped of gift, and if the resolution 'rase at a legal Vestry Meeting, it must he binding upon all the Parishioners. lam happy to say that I know instances of the latter riescriptun, ; the inhabitants of Biehopsgate wished to confer on th e i r p as tor a token (.if common regard, and so far is dila eireumstant:e from deteriorati ng the Bitilkop'e character, that' it adds gr t and deserved lustre to it.

We received last night the Paris Papers of Tuesday, and the'Etoile, dated Wednesday, Aug. 24; „„ The latter contains the conclusion of the Firman, issued by the SUBLIME PO RTE, for 06 dissolution of the Corps of the' Janissaries, and . the , organization . of a new army, under the denomination of the VictO- rims Troops .of Mahthnet. Upon the whole, we, may consider this Firman, as a well drawn statement of the events which have occurred” in Constarif;nonle, and calculated to convince the people of the necessity of the measures which the SULTAN adopted, and the energy with which they . have been executed. It is at the same time writtn, with moderation, and an apparent wish to do justice hi the execution of the strong mea sures which had been decided upon, .and contains less display of superstition than usual in instruments issued by the DIVAN. The date now given to this Firman is 16th June, and if this be correct, it shows clearly, what we always supposed, that the overthrow of the Janissaries was the result of a previous and well arranged plan. The Etoile ridicules, as inventions, the assertions of the Constitutionnel, that the certificate of the oath taken to the Charter by the Infant Dori' MIGUEL had been received.at Lisbon, and likewise a despatch from . Mr. CANNiNG, announcing that if the orders of the Emperor DON PEDim should not be executed, he would send an English Ariny to cause them to be carried into effect. It also mentions, for the purpose of con tradiCting the reports, that Sir WM.. A'Cotrivr had presented a - note, threatening the Spanish Government with a declaration of war from Great Britain, if the Portuguese Soldiers should continue to be received in Spa►n ; and that two armies of 15,000 men• are to he formed in Spain, one as an Army of Observation, the other as an Army of Reserve.

Frankfort Papers to die igth inst. reached us foe night. Their Contents have no poiitical importance. The countries on the Rhine complain bitterly of the cessation of the demand for their. manufactures and produce, in consequence of the 'agitated state of South. America, and of the war between 'Brazil and. Buenos Ayres.. The leather nianutacturers alone were in frill activity, preparing a large sllt , ..ck for the ,fairs at Frank fort and Leipsic. It was at length positively known that the navigation of the Rhine by steam` boats from . Cologne to Strasburg, and that of the Maine from Mayence to Frankfort, would not be opened till the Spring. It is stated it►'the Postscript of a letter, dated the 14th June, received from Ilia de Janeiro, but we know not with what degree of probability, that Lord PONSONBY has prevailed with the Council to acknow ledge die Independence of the.Banda Oriental. It is asserted in the American Papers, on informa tion said to have been received from Monte Video, that that town is not in fact besieged, the Buenos A yrean forces in its vicinity not exceeding 1,000 men, and these principally cavalry, while the garrison con sists of 3,500 men, besides an out-post of 1,000 on a neighbouring kill. It is added, that nothing but:want of energy prevents the garrison from sallying out 'and dispersing the besiegers. The letter which we published , yesterday as having been received from Jamaica, and posted up at the North and South American Coffee-house, relative to the Anglo-Mexican Mining Associaiion, produced the following Notice, which was also put up at the same Coffee-house : " ♦NGLO-AIXXMCAN XINING A.SOCIATION. " There is no truth in the allegations relative to thin associa tion. Letters from the Commissioners in Mexico, of a later date than the alleged information, are of a satisfactory nature, and shall be communicated to the proprietors at the meeting on Monday. " JOSEPH LOWE, Sec. " 7, St. Helen's-place, Thursday, Aug. 24, 1626." _ _ We may adopt the words of a cotemporary, on this subject,' who says, " We profess, to know little of the " affairs of this or of other Mining Associations, " beyond the statements which the parties interested 44 from time to time make public; but the fact that the 4 , shares in this association, on which 651. have been " paid, are now to be purchased for about 15/. each, proves, at least, that the knowledge of its prosperous situation is confined within a very narrow circle." In our Paper of yesterday, we gave the principal contents of the Letters and Papers from Lima, to the 13th May. Papers were subsequently received to the 18th, of that month, but they do not furnish us with any additional particulars. A copy is given in the Governthent Gii.zette, of the Memorial which the deputation from the Congress, consisting of 52 members, presented to the Council of - Government, raying that BOLIVAit would, for the welfare of the New States, retain hint present authority, and continue in Peru for one year snore, but its great length precludes our giving snore than its xonelusion (which, however, contains its essence), and the reply of Bor,i VAR. k subsequent decree of the Council directs the'adoption of the .measures recommendedl)y the Deputation of the Congress : " Ts reduce to precise terms what has been set forth in this memorial, the undersigned are of opinion, that until the powers of the Deputies be rendered uniform,—the representation be com pleted,—the wishes of the people respecting the revision and re form of the. Constution be ascertained, it be sufficiently ascertained in what person public opinion centres for the exercise of the su preme magistracy, and the subsistence of the Representatives be ,assured, the following resolutions ought in the mean time to be adopted : • " I. To suspend the coneScation of the Congress until next year. _ . _ " 2. To order the Prefects to make with all the promptitude and completeness possible, the census of the provinces of the state. "8.
